SWEET ROSÉ: A sweeter-tasting wine, created by not fermenting all of the fructose into alcohol. White Zinfandel, White Merlot & Pink Moscato.
FRENCH ROSÉ: Rosé from the South of France: The south of France is Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon or sometimes just labeled “Pays d’Oc.” Wines from here smell of strawberries and raspberries and are refreshing with zesty acidity. Rosé from the Loire Valley: This variety is even drier and zippier. Flavors of grapefruit, mint and even red bell pepper are common. In Bordeaux, Rosé made from Merlot tends to be sweet, with an aroma of strawberries and peaches.
